Answer:

A principal quantum number refers to the energy level of the orbital.

Explanation:

A principal quantum number refers to the energy level of the orbital, the first level being the one with the lowest energy. This orbital refers to the average distance of the electron to the nucleus, this mean when the principal quantum number increases the energy of that orbital increases too but the probability of finding the electron near the nucleus decreases.

This quantum number can take  positive integers from 1 to 7

<span> this represents the relative overall energy of each orbital, and the energy of each orbital increases as the distance from the nucleus increases</span>

Talk to them and listen to each other. if they aren’t ready to talk, give them space. once both of you are ready, you can make up and forgive each other. don’t bother them by asking a lot of questions and forcing them to talk to you. and if they’re doing that, tell them you need time to think. just be sure to talk to them, listen, and understand. tell each other both sides of the stories. of course, different situations can require different solutions. so resolve it when it’s time :)

What is the mole fraction of solute in a 3.19 m aqueous solution?
Bumek [7]
Molality= mol/ Kg

if we assume that we have 1 kg of water, we have 3.19 moles of solute. 

the formula for mole fraction --> mole fraction= mol of solule/ mol of solution

1) if we have 1 kg of water which is same as 1000 grams of water. 

2) we need to convert grams to moles using the molar mass of water 

molar mass of H₂O= (2 x 1.01) + 16.0 = 18.02 g/mol

1000 g (1 mol/ 18.02 grams)= 55.5 mol

3) mole of solution= 55.5 moles + 3.19 moles= 58.7 moles of solution

4) mole fraction= 3.19 / 58.7= 0.0543
